O Mar Serenou
Clara Nunes
The Sea Calmed Down
The sea calmed down when she stepped on the sand
Who dances by the shore is a mermaid
The sea calmed down when she stepped on the sand
Who dances by the shore is a mermaid
The fisherman isn’t scared
It’s a secret if he comes back or stays at the bottom of the sea
Seeing the beautiful girl dancing, he realizes he won’t fish
Let the sea calm down
The sea calmed down when she stepped on the sand
Who dances by the shore is a mermaid
The sea calmed down when she stepped on the sand
Who dances by the shore is a mermaid
The Moon shone proudly, full of itself, boasting of what God gave it
Seeing the girl dancing
It started to feel down, then fell asleep
The Sun came out
The sea calmed down when she stepped on the sand
Who dances by the shore is a mermaid
The sea calmed down when she stepped on the sand
Who dances by the shore is a mermaid
A damn cold that came from the chilly side, made the people even shy away
The girl accepted the challenge
She danced and the cold felt her warmth
And the samba heated up
The sea calmed down when she stepped on the sand
Who dances by the shore is a mermaid
The sea calmed down when she stepped on the sand
Who dances by the shore is a mermaid
The star that was hidden
Felt drawn in and then appeared
But it became so touched
It asked itself: Is the star her or is it me?
The sea calmed down when she stepped on the sand
Who dances by the shore is a mermaid (and let the sea calm down)
The sea calmed down when she stepped on the sand
Who dances by the shore is a mermaid (and let the sea calm down)
The sea calmed down when she stepped on the sand
Who dances by the shore is a mermaid
